Sterling Silver Chains


I've made a number of these chains over the past few years. They are labor intensive and intricate in nature to make. If you click on the photo, it will enlarge to show the detail. I start with sterling silver wire and then coil it around a steel shaft. After which I cut and soldered each link. Then the links are woven into each other to create the silver chain. This photo is of two chains, each 22" in length. Once polished, they are stunning.
